X&Y South East Asia Tour Edition (by Coldplay)
I began to like Coldplay’s music when I first heard of the song “The Scientist” back in 1992 from their second Album, “A Rush of Blood to the Head”.
Coldplay is a British band, having Chris Martin as the vocalist and pianist, Jonny Buckland as lead guitarist, Guy Berryman as …
Go!Go!7188 - Antenna (2009 Album)
I’ve been following Japanese surf rock band Go!Go!7188 for over 5 years now, and I was really excited to get my copy of their 2009 album, Antenna, which promised some different sounds while still showing the classic Go!Go!7188 rock.
True enough, the album featured songs that I can’t really say …
System Of A Down - War? (Music Video)
Overview —“ War, as it’s name suggests is a song all about War, a topic that System Of A Down has explored multiple and various times throughout their career, probably at least once on each album. Generally I’d get sick about listening to the same topic if it kept …
CD KISS DRESSED TO KILL
DRESSED TO KILL
I give this one extra point for the classic album cover with KISS decked out in three piece suits.
KISS’ third album was another poor seller when first released and at this point, it seemed that KISS was never going to have any success recording in studio.
The only …

Destination Anywhere
When I first heard the songs in the album Destination Anywhere, I feel less like the kind of music played by Jon Bon Jovi and accompanying musicians. At first, I was quickly bored with the composition of the tone that I find seem monotonous. This is very different from …
Album - Black Pistol Fire (2011)
I must admit that up until somebody aimed me toward this album i had never heard of the band Black Pistol Fire, but now after spending some time with album i am happy to have found it. The closest band i can compare them to would be the White …
The White Stripes - Little Ghost (Song)
Little Ghost is a song by The White Stripes which appears on their album Get Behind Me Satan. The track opens up with a simple rhythm which features some outside instrumentation and also has the vocals join in the track pretty much immediately as well. What I like immediately …

Cradle Of Filth Nymphetamine
This is the band’s Fifth album and first for Roadrunner Records, released in 2004. This is a great album by the band, it’s smoother than anything the band has released before it, it is really heavy, and at times has a lot of melody, and could be classified as …
Whitesnake : Good To Be Raid
Whitesnake back groundbreaking rock music industry after more than 10 years, a break without releasing an album. Still carrying the same theme music, the eleventh album from Whitesnake, dominated the music sounding mid tempo, which has become characteristic of Whitesnake. Apparently not in the young age, David …

Soulja Boy
I hear so much hype over Soulja boy. So many little kids run around singing, that “hop up out the bed song”, including my little cousins. At first I liked Soulja Boy, ever since he came out with his first song, “Crank that Soulja Boy”. I liked the beat …
Vandoren V12 Lire Clarinet Reeds (Silver Box)
The Vandoren V12 Reeds are a slightly new type of reeds that supposedly last longer, sound better, and are easier to play.
First impression: There was no real surprise when I opened the box- the only difference was the color of the box and the packets. However, as soon …
The Doors - Touch Me (Song)
Touch Me is a track which appears on The Soft Parade, an album by The Doors. Aside form the brilliant introduction to the song, I think something which a listener will notice right away is the instrumentation of this track. Touch Me features instruments which are certainly outside the …
Animal Collective - Bleed (Song)
Bleed is a song by Animal Collective and is the third track on their EP release Fall Be Kind. Opening with a spoken word section, Bleed soon transitions into an incredibly empty atmosphere which is both positive and negative. On the downside, I’m not a huge fan of the …
Empire of The Sun - Walking on A Dream
First time I hear ‘Walking On a Dream’ from Empire of The Sun, I really want to listen to this song more and more. First, I don’t know who sing this good song, until i search on Google with some part of lyrics as a keyword and finally I …
Misty Forest Morning by David & Steve Gordon
Misty Forest Morning by David & Steve Gordon is an audio CD that is a part of my relaxing and soothing music collection and I am happy that it is, too. I really enjoy this CD because the composers do a simply superb job of mixing soft instrumental music …
Black Eyed Peas Where Is The Love
Black Eyed Peas Where Is The Love is a beautiful song I like listening to because it talks about how the world is today. No lies so far I have found in this song. It talks about how we need to do as we say and proclaim and not …
KISS Destroyer CD
Destroyer by KISS has got to be one of the best albums ever. I simply love it. The songs are awesome and the cover is one of their best!
The cover features all four original members of KISS (Paul, Peter, Ace, and Gene) in full makeup in a very …
Cracker by Cracker, album
For some reason, I feel like I shouldn’t like the band Cracker—¦ but I do anyway. I suppose it’s what the band calls “Cracker Soul” that moves me. It’s that intangible there is in music that is added by pure feeling. Cracker songs are simple; easy chord progressions repeated …
The Grateful Dead - Aoxomoxoa
Overview - Aoxomoxoa, the third album by The Grateful Dead, goes back more to traditional song structure and a lot further away from the experimental side they meddled with on Anthem Of The Sun, however you can still hear some pretty experimental sides on certain tracks. Also, the songs …
Pink Floyd - The Trial (Song)
The Trial, the penultimate track of Pink Floyd’s concept record The Wall, is what I believe an excellent way to wrap up the story, or just about wrap up, and certainly a brilliant track in itself. For those of you who either have not heard The Wall or know …
Queen: Greatest Hits
While I’m not a huge Queen fan, I do like several of their songs and believe their music is perfect for when I’m in the car trying to stay awake on my drive to work.
That’s why I was glad to find their Greatest Hits album on sale at Wal-mart …
Sunshine
The song ‘Sunshine’ is a simple sort of song performed by John Denver. It has a very good melody that makes you want to sing along. It reminds me of camping along side of a lake and waking to the sun rising over the water. Then when it rises …
Metallica - Holier Than Thou (Song)
Holier Than Thou, the third song off The Black Album, is certainly much more aggressive than the previous two tracks of Sad But True and Enter Sandman. Although the aggression and speed of Holier Than Thou doesn’t match the first four records, it’s probably one of the more aggressive …
Collide (Single)- Howie Day
This song maybe not be one of the newest songs out there, but it has a lasting legacy. I heard this song at a younger age, liked it, but really didn’t understand what it was saying, I liked the tune. Ten years later I listen to this song again …
Song : Soul On The Line by Connor Garvey
I was on the way home from work this evening when a gentle, lilting little love song came through the speakers. I was listening to Sirius radio which came with the car we just bought and decided to settle onto The Coffeehouse Channel. “Soul On The Line” …
Country Music Singer Martina McBride
Female country music singer, Martina McBride is one of my favorite singers. She has a habit of singing songs that are about strong women rather than the whiny songs that most country singers have a tendency to sing. Her music makes women feel as though they have the power …
Viva la white girl by Gym class heroes
Viva la white girl by gym class heroes is a song I like a lot but of course I normally like any song by gym class heroes. This song is about the lead singers addition to music not his addiction to cocaine. This song is a wonderful song in …

I like the …
Kuff (song by Shelly Thunder)
I am sure this one sounds far out, but yes, Kuff is the name of a song by an artist named Shelley Thunder who is a dancehall artist or queen. It is now a song which we would call Old School here in Trinidad and a few other Caribbean …
The Soweto Gospel Choir
Having been invited to their live video recording performance, what I expected of the Soweto Gospel Choir is nothing close to what I actually witnessed, and I mean that in the most positive way possible.
From what I had experienced before, a lot of choral music didn’t really appeal to …
Krayzie Bone: Good VS Evil CD
The latest Krayzie Bone album called Good VS Evil is a musical masterpiece. This CD shows Krayzie Bone’s dark and good side. I think this is the best Krayzie Bone album that takes you deep into his mind. The productions and beats are very powerful and just great. Krayzie Bone …
Pink Floyd - The Wall (Side III)
Overview - Side III of The Wall is, in my opinion, the strongest side of the entire album. The one thing about this side of the album is that it’s extremely dominated by Waters on lead vocals whereas on the previous sides it was at least a slightly better …

Got Your Back (song) from T.I. featuring Keri Hilson
The opening strain of this song is like Knock you down from Keri Hilson. They lyrics shows that it is became Knocks you down part two. Actually that is what my friends said too but anyway this song is like other hip hop songs that came out it only …
A Perfect Circle
I first heard about the group “A Perfect Circle” in my final years of high school. At that time I didn’t consider them as my favorite band, or even one of my favorites. However, I did love the few songs I heard from them which as the time …
What You Got (song by, Akon)
I listen to nearly all genres of music, but I do not have any particular artist or bands that I like. I just listen to what is pleasing to my ears. One of the songs that I have been hearing a lot for the past couple of weeks is …
Neutral Milk Hotel - You’ve Passed (Song)
You’ve Passed is a song by Neutral Milk Hotel and is the second track on their debut album, On Avery Island. Opening up with a simple percussive rhythm, a guitar soon joins in the mix and creates a fairly brooding atmosphere for the song which is appropriate to the …
Neutral Milk Hotel - April 8th (Song)
April 8th is a song by Neutral Milk Hotel and is the penultimate song on their debut album On Avery Island. Though Three Peaches, another song on this album, had a pretty dark and sad sound to it, I must say that April 8th is easily the darkest track …
Is this it, Album by The Strokes
This is the first outing for this US band and what an outing it is. With a sublime mix of rock and punky sounds make this band deeply reminiscent of the Ramones. Although since, many UK bands like the Libertines, Kaiser Chiefs and in the US bands …

Clocking in at around 15 mins, The splatter sessions …
